My A1C is down to 6.1. I was hospitalized briefly in June for a bout of nausea that wouldn’t stop and I couldn’t eat anything without throwing it up. I was dehydrated and weak, and they had to stabilize my nausea with an injection of something before I could be transported in an ambulance. After three days of hydration with intravenous injections and after going off the Ozempic for a few days, I recovered. I think it was the Ozempic, but I also think I let myself get this way. I should have taken better notice. Now I have compazine to help with bad nausea and I’m OK.
Glad the 1 mg dose is working for me, but also glad others have the option to increase the dose.
I have now lost from 198 pounds to 165 pounds. Hoping to lose 20 more so I lose my muffin top. LOL.
